oatmeal flavor

what does everyone put in their oatmeal so it doesnt taste like wall paper paste?!

ShellyKay67

i use craisins, cinnamon (alot) and usually 1 T. Honey
you could slice some banana in it and add some chopped pecans
I have used stevia in place of the honey too......tend to be over on sugar for the day if I do the honey and craisins and then eat another fruit that day.
there are tons of combinations for oatmeal.
some people say peanut butter mixed in although i've not tried it and i'm not sure why as i love peanut butter! lol

Just had raisins and applesauce in my hot cereal.

Frozen Blueberries and a little protein Powder or 1 small chopped apple, some cinnamon and a little honey or brown sugar. You can also add walnuts as well. Chopped peaches and cinnamon are so good too!

All these taste like having cobbler! Not paste..yum!

Sweet oatmeal turns my stomach. I can only eat mine with salt/soy sauce and maybe a bit of green pepper and onion. And not much water while cooking it either. Savoury is the only way for me.

LOL love the analogy! I use crasines or cinnamon for mine when I have it if not I blend it up into a smoothie. I will sometimes add other fruit as well.

peanut butter!

Peanut butter, milk and sometime a small amount of brown sugar.

Lately I've been using sugar free blackberry jam, which has been really good. Applesauce and cinnamon isn't bad either.

If it tastes like wallpaper paste, you don't know how to make it.

I usually have my porridge with agave nectar and a chopped banana... Yum! I had no idea what craisins were - I thought people kept misspelling raisins, but they're dried cranberries! Haha... I might try some dried cranberries too

Cocoa powder and PB!

I tried apple butter in it this morning and it was really good. I just wished I had a little extra cinnamon to put in it.

cigarzzz

Raisins or Blueberries...

AmyEm3

Lately I've been using cinnamon, brown sugar, and pecans.

But sometimes I'll use banana, peanut butter, a few chocolate chips.

AmyLRed

a banana, frozen raspberries or blueberries, a scoop of PB2, and always with a scoop of my protein powder.

I am eating outfit oatmeal, 100 cals (plus adding my raspberries and my powder)

Maple and Brown Sugar with Bananas on top is awesome.

nitepagan

I buy the instant prepackaged servings, maple & brown sugar. I just bought a new package apples & cinnamon, low sugar. 110 calories a packet. I usually eat the oatmeal without milk.

My favorite oatmeal is longer cooking or oat groats, with cinnamon, 1/4 cup chopped raisins cooked in with the oats so it sweetens it, and 1oz of diced almonds on top. I find this will hold me until lunch with no cravings for snacks...

ashquin

i am making the old fashioned oats. no flavor at all

If it tastes like wallpaper paste, you don't know how to make it.

ashquin

thanks everyone. i am gonnt try pb2 tomorrow morning.

therealangd

huh? You don't like the taste of wallpaper paste???? *weird* teehee

I usually add 1/8 cup crasins.

Banana and walnut is good too, if you have lots of extra calories.

Just finished a bowl with a tbsp of honey and 1/3 cup frozen blueberries

First, try making steel cut oats rather than rolled. They're less processed, so they have more tooth and a nuttier taste.

Second, I usually stick with brown sugar. Honey and cinnamon are good. So are almonds or walnuts.
